2 (3) (3) For Thine khitzim (arrows) pierce me, and Thy Yad presseth upon me.

3 (4) (4) There is no health in my basar because of Thine anger; neither is there any shalom in my atzmot because of my chattat.

4 (5) (5) For mine avonot (iniquities) are gone over mine head; as a weighty massa (burden) they are too heavy for me.

5 (6) (6) My chaburot (wounds) are foul and festering because of my wicked folly.

6 (7) (7) I am bent down; I am brought low ad me'od; I go about mourning all day long.

7 (8) (8) For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no health in my basar.

8 (9) (9) I am feeble and broken ad me'od; I have groaned by reason of the disquietness of my lev.

9 (10) (10) Adonoi, all my ta'avah (desire, longing) is before Thee; and my groaning is not hid from Thee.

10 (11) (11) My lev panteth, my ko'ach faileth me; as for the ohr of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

11 (12) (12) My loved ones and my re'a stand aloof from my nega [T.N. see Isa 53:8 on Moshiach’s nega]; and my neighbors stand afar off.

12 (13) (13) They also that seek after my nefesh lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak of ruin, and plot mirmot (deceptions, deceits) all the day long.

13 (14) (14) But I, like a cheresh (deaf man), heard not; and I was like a mute that openeth not his mouth.

14 (15) (15) Thus I was like an ish that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no tokhachot (reproofs).

15 (16) (16) For I wait for Thee, Hashem; Thou wilt hear, Adonoi Elohai.

16 (17) (17) For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should gloat over me; when my regel slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

17 (18) (18) For I am ready to fall, and my sorrow is before me tamid.

18 (19) (19) For I will declare mine avon; I will be in anguish over my chattat.

19 (20) (20) But mine oveyim are chayyim (vigorous), and they are strong; and they that hate me sheker (wrongfully) are multiplied.

20 (21) (21) They also that repay ra'ah for tovah are mine adversaries; because I pursue the thing that is tov.

21 (22) (22) Forsake me not, Hashem Elohai; be not far from me.

22 (23) (23) Make haste to help me, Adonoi Teshuati (L-rd of my salvation).
